ABOUT the shop

Get Loud is a shop for musical instruments and a centre for music lessons. It's a place where musicians can relax as they look for their next piece of gear. It’s a place for beginners to ask questions and find the right instrument without having to deal with pretentious and overbearing staff. We don’t pressure our customers because Get Loud is more than a music store. It’s a place to feel at home.

Wonder how a guitar feels? Pick it up and play it. Curious how Fender amps stack up against Marshall? Plug in and compare. Need a new guitar pedal for your board? Grab some cables and try a few out. Our goal is to help you find an instrument you love, an instrument that motivates you to play every day. We invite you to come in and speak to our staff so we can help you find exactly what you need.

We Teach Music Lessons, too.

We love music so much we've put together a team of teachers to help you learn the ins and outs of your instrument. We offer music lessons that cover a variety of instruments for all ages and skill levels. Once you pick the instrument for you, or if you've already got the perfect guitar, bass or set of drums, let us help you fine tune your playing.

DAVID PARTRIDGE - Owner, Get Loud Music and lessons

Get Loud is owned and operated by David Partridge. If you’ve been in the shop, there is a 99.9% chance you’ve met him. He's the bedrock of Get Loud Music. Think of our music store as a well-oiled industrial machine: David represents 80% of the cogs and gears that keep it working. Need to know what guitar strings to buy? He’s the guy to ask. Getting frustrated by a weird frequency in your amp? He’s the guy that’ll get rid of it. Got a toggle switch busted on your guitar and the action is a little high? Yeah, you guessed it – he’s the guy that’ll fix it.

To be honest, David should win employee of the month every month, but he’d never accept the honour. At some music stores, it’s hard to find a manager let alone the owner, but at our shop there’s no confusion. Get Loud is David’s shop, and there is no Get Loud without David.
